Loro Park zoo

The park is quite compact so you don’t have to travel large distances, and is therefore suitable for couples, families with children, older people and even school trips. Loro Parque has a wonderful range of animals, but a few of the highlights are the beautiful jaguars, tigers and lions, the funny gorillas and sea lions. As well as the cute red pandas and dolphins, the stunning stay of the penguins, the shark and jellyfish aquarium, the parrot collection and of course the killer whales.

Loro Parque Mission

In addition to the knowledge of animals they share with you, Loro Parque is also committed to helping endangered species. And there will always be a part of the ticket price that goes directly to the great cause.

News 2019-2021

• Since December 2019 the park has a beautiful new addition, namely two beautiful jaguar cubs.

Loro Parque by car

The zoo is easily accessible by car as well if you have a rental car. The quickest way would be to take the highway. We would advise you to leave early to avoid the busy traffic. We would not recommend renting a car for Loro Parque only as the price would be similar or sometimes even more expensive if you include the parking and gasoline costs. In that case, the bus transfer to the zoo would be a better choice and less stressful.

Loro Parque Shows

The park is also known for the magnificent shows they organize, the emphasis of the shows is on showing to the audience how intelligent, beautiful and powerful the animals are. During the shows, they also demonstrate some of the hunting techniques by the animals.

You can visit all the shows with our ticket:

• Orca show (3 times a day)
• Dolphin show (4 times a day)
• Sea lion show (5 times a day)
• Parrot show (6 times a day)
• Nature vision (cinema playing a 20-minute film, 9 times a day)

Restaurants

In the park, you can find 3 cafes and 5 eating places including a grill, fast food, restaurant a la carte and an Italian restaurant.

Why should I buy a ticket beforehand?

In the entrance, there are 2 queues to Loro Parque. One of them is for people with tickets and the other is for people who still need to buy the tickets. You don’t have to stand in the long line if you’ve already purchased your tickets beforehand and therefore have even more time to enjoy the park.
